Münster: Indoor golf/golf simulator experience at Next Golf
If you’re looking for a fun, relaxed way to enjoy golf without leaving Münster, Next Golf offers a modern indoor experience that’s perfect for both novices and seasoned players. Located in North Rhine-Westphalia, this indoor golf hall makes it easy to try your hand at golf, improve your skills, or simply have a good time with friends or family. For just $28 per person, you get a full hour on state-of-the-art Trackman simulators, access to a stylish lounge, and the chance to play on virtual versions of famous golf courses. It’s a compact, well-designed option that fits into a busy travel schedule or a casual weekend outing.
Two things I really appreciate about Next Golf are its contemporary atmosphere and the inclusivity of the experience. The location itself, set in a former goods station, feels fresh and inviting, with a lounge that encourages lingering before or after your game. Plus, the simulators are suitable for up to five players per box, making it a good choice for small groups or families. The second point I love is the versatility—whether you’re interested in taking lessons, practicing your swing on the range, or just having a laugh hitting mini golf balls, there’s something here for everyone.
One potential consideration is that this experience is relatively short—just one hour—which is perfect if your schedule is tight but might feel a bit rushed if you’re hoping for a long, leisurely day. Also, while the price includes clubs, balls, and instruction, you’ll need to find your way there yourself, as transport isn’t included. Still, for the quality of the simulators and the cozy lounge, many will find this to be good value.
